About Global Fund for Women

Global Fund for Women is a global champion for the human rights of women, girls, and all marginalized people. We operate on the frontlines of feminist activism, moving resources to grassroots organizations and movements worldwide to fuel collective action and create meaningful, lasting change. We believe in a world where every person can realize their full potential, free from discrimination and violence.
